10 people from all around are invited to come to Indian Island from Mr. Owen who writes them a letter stating how he knows them and asked them to come and stay at his Island.
Each character has his or her owns story so they come to the Island.
None of the guests don't really know who Mr. Owen is but they don't care and the sound of being invited to and Island where they can relax takes the best of all of them so they don't pay any attention to it.
Chapter 2
They arrive at the island and Mr. Owen is not there but says he will come for dinner and he is very sorry.
Mr. Owen never arrives for dinner and all the guests find it very odd.
Chapter 3
the weird voice comes and says who everyone had killed and what happened
Mrs. Rogers fainted and Dr. Armstrong gives her sleeping pills and she goes to sleep
they all go around the room saying how they got invited
Chapter 4
Anthony Marston Dies from drinking
Chapter 5
they realize that Anthony is dead
they come to the conclusion that someone put something in his drink weather it was himself or someone tried to kill him
they talked about if it was a murderer or not but they are not sure
Chapter 6
Mrs. Rogers is found dead
they suspect that Dr. Armstrong had killed hr from giving her those sleeping pills
but they realize he didn't do it- they also suspect Mr. Rogers but they figure its very unlikely for a husband to kill his wife because he didn't show any signs of being mad at her or something
Chapter 7
They try to figure out what is going on and why all these people are dying
Dr. Armstrong figures out that the killer has been following the "10 Little Indians" poem on how everyone is going to die
so now everyone has a clue on how each person is going to die they just don't know when so they all have to keep a look out for things that could happen like how the next Little Indian died.

Vera kills Armstrong and goes back into the house to go to sleep
when she remembers how the poem went
she walks into her bedroom and finds the rope hanging to hang herself
she hung herself
After the Story
Wargrave faked his death so it would look like he didn't do it
after everyone was killed he killed himself but he made it look like someone had killed him
When people where there to inspect the couldn't figure out what had happened because they were all murdered (at least that's what it had looked like)
they figured that the killer had left the island before anyone could see what he had done but all the deaths knew differant but they were dead so the police would never figure out what had happened.

1. "He might have noticed that a curious constraint came over the other members of the party. It was as though the mention of their host and hostess had a curious paralizing effect upon the guests."
2. " Vera had followed Mrs. Pogers upstairs. The woman had thrown open a door at the end of a passage and vra had waled into a delightful bedroom with a big window that opened wide upon the sea and another looking east. She uttered a quick exclamation of pleasure."
3. "Vera went over to the window and sat down on the window seat. She was faintly disturbed. Everything-somehow- was a little queer. The absenceof the Owen, the pale ghoastlike Mrs. Rogers. And the guests! yes, the guests were queer too. An oddly assorted party."
4. "Vera smiled. Of course! This was Indian Island! She went and sat again by the window looking out to sea. How big the sea was. From here there was no land to be seen anywhere- just a vast expanse of blue water rippling int he evening sun. The sea....So peaseful to-day- sometimes so cruel....The sea that dragged you down to its depths- Drowned-drowned-drowned.... No, she wouldn't rememeber.... She would not think of that! All that was over....
These sentences clearly show suspense because in each case there is edginess and something is kept in the back of their minds that is wrong and doeasnt seem right but they try not to think of that and they try to enjoy their time at the new and exotic island that they just arrived on.
